JulianeKenzo had been paralyzed in all four legs for two weeks. He wasn’t eating, he slept only on his side and he never even tried to get up. Prescription medications had no effect. His owners were on a mission to find a solution, and that’s when they found Dr. Valérie Trudel’s acupuncture and osteopathy clinic. When Kenzo arrived at the clinic, he seemed to be in pain.
Dr. Trudel’s first instinct was to prepare his owners for the possibility of euthanasia. Obviously, that’s not a reality any pet owner wants to face, so they made up their mind to try everything they could. They knew the journey ahead would be long. Dr. Trudel performed acupuncture on Kenzo and his owners decided to wait a full 24-hours before making a snap judgement about the results.
Kenzo arrived lying on his side. After the first treatment, he left lying on his stomach. Dr. Trudel saw him again two weeks later; he was...

JulianeYoga is a spiritual discipline dating back to some 5000 years in the history of Indian philosophy, its purpose, mainly to unleash spiritual and mental powers of an individual. However, in recent times yoga has been extremely popular in the context of fighting stress, anxiety and depression in these times of industrialization and our super-fast lifestyles.
Apart from the spiritual aspects, the physiological benefits acquired from yoga have recently had radical scientific understandings behind its workings. It also moderates the surge and the production of chemicals in the body that affect us mentally, physically as well as psychosomatically. So, let's understand the science behind yoga that makes it so useful!

JulianeThese two darling Irish siblings completely captured my heart. Glowing with such absolute beauty, joy and love... I've truly fallen in love with them. (Please forgive the glare as the paint is still wet!)
I approached this oil painting, "Ireland Babes" (18 x 14 oil on panel), in an entirely new fashion. All the plein air painting I've done has made me a much better, more spontaneous and fast painter. The reason being in just one hour outside painting, the entire scene will have totally changed due to the swiftly moving light and, therefore, one must respond to the scene just as quickly or it won't get captured. What this means is there is no time for any conversation in the head... only time to let life flow through and work its magic on the canvas. So this is...

JulianeAllow me to introduce you to HairPrint, the only 100% hypoallergenic, non-toxic, odor-free hair color in the world proven not only to restore hair to its natural color... it also improves hair structure!
Bye-bye harmful chemicals that eventually cause irreparable damage to the hair shaft, follicles and scalp-- Not to mention to our bodies as a whole, since the particles of standard toxic hair dyes are small enough to enter the bloodstream (the reason we can't color hair during pregnancy). The melanin pigment in Hairprint is already present in millions of our skin cells and due to its relatively large size does not pass into the bloodstream...

JulianeToday I thought I'd share one of my favorite books, The Baghavad Gita. Specifically, the version translated by Eknath Easwaran (1910-1999), who is respected around the world as one of the greatest spiritual teachers. The Bhagavad Gita is believed to have been written between the 5th and 2nd centuries BCE, and, like similar great classics such as

JulianeI spent last weekend on the Eastern Shore oil painting en plein air. It was a windy, cold weekend, and though I don't typically think of myself as a terribly hardy person, I think I grew a bit more resilient. What's neat about painting is while I'm doing it I don't notice anything else, including whether or not I'm cold. It all comes down to the fact that our attention can only be on one...

Juliane"Little Rocker" 18" x 14" Oil on Canvas This little guy! Does he look familiar? You may recognize him from my last oil painting. Here, it's like an instant in time - - he's caught looking back at us from his surroundings. In the first painting, he was headed somewhere with a purpose... and now, interrupted in what he was doing, he will return to it after we tell him why we stopped him. Exuding...

JulianePlease enjoy my most recent oil of this unbelievably darling little Raphealesque Putto. Putto (singular for putti) is Italian for a work of art depicting a nude, sometimes winged, child angelic being, usually male, represented in Renaissance paintings by such greats as the painter Raphael and sculptor Donatello. In the Baroque period of art, the putto came to represent the omnipresence of God. Putti, in the ancient classical world of art, were winged infants believed to influence human lives. I absolutely ...
